    Everybody but Haney. Not that he'd get in the ring with any of them...

    All of the above tbh, but Teo at 140 shuts him out.

    I think Teo as well, but I'm voting for Shakur. I always am a massive fan with US Olympic boxers from the start until the end of their careers. Now that Olympic boxing looks to be done, I'm glad we get to watch Stevenson and all other Olympic boxers with professional careers finish their boxing careers. They are the last of the boxers who will have Olympic experience. Even though I think the Olympics are utterly corrupt, I will still miss watching the young athletes from around the world compete in my favorite form of hand-to-hand combat to watch. Those Olympic planning losers canceling boxing... now I'll never get to see the positive of them ripping off another Roy Jones Jr. or Evander Holyfield and then watching them turn pro and rising to the top! lol

    All those guys got a chance because they're fighting at an elite level, only thing is getting the contracts signed.

    A couple of years ago Loma would've spanked him. I think both Haney and Skakur are to fragile to beat Tank he will eventually get to them over 12 rounds. Teo at 140 would be a great fight probably 50/50

    teo vs tank at 140 is more like 60-40 teo. It took him 11 rounds to stop a drained barrios. Im not worried about teo getting knocked out. Also weve never seen shakur take hard clean punches to the face so who knows what his chin is like

    My gut tells me Shakur is not built for war the same way Tank and Teo are. Like you said he has never been tested. I think both him and Haney will come undone the first time they are clipped by a good puncher. I can see why some would favor Teo. I did say 50/50 but gun to the head I would pick Tank.

    Difficult to answer this because Tank knocks all of them out but Shakur is the best fighter of these potential opponents.

    Not a fan of Teo but I think his style might be the best fit. I see his chin getting cracked and never being the same or him breaking down tank after the 5th round.

    I think Teo at 140 would be very difficult for Tank............but Shakur at any weight would have him in hell.
